This recipe was okay; a little sweet, a little bland. I used butternut squash (pre-cooked it so I could cut it up easier) and added some shitake mushrooms to the sauteed onions. It took about 90 minutes to make. Husband thought that it could use some chile or something hot, for a kind of sweet-spicy flavor. Makes more than 6 servings, unless you are planning to eat this as a main course.
